This is documentation for maintainers of this project.
|
|
|
|
## Code of Conduct
|
|
|
|
Please review, understand, and be an example of it. Violations of the code of conduct are
|
|
taken seriously, even (especially) for maintainers.
|
|
|
|
## Issues
|
|
|
|
We want to support and build the community. We do that best by helping people learn to solve
|
|
their own problems. We have an issue template and hopefully most folks follow it. If it's
|
|
not clear what the issue is, invite them to create a minimal reproduction of what they're trying
|
|
to accomplish or the bug they think they've found.
|
|
|
|
Once it's determined that a code change is necessary, point people to
|
|
[makeapullrequest.com](http://makeapullrequest.com) and invite them to make a pull request.
|
|
If they're the one who needs the feature, they're the one who can build it. If they need
|
|
some hand holding and you have time to lend a hand, please do so. It's an investment into
|
|
another human being, and an investment into a potential maintainer.
|
|
|
|
Remember that this is open source, so the code is not yours, it's ours. If someone needs a change
|
|
in the codebase, you don't have to make it happen yourself. Commit as much time to the project
|
|
as you want/need to. Nobody can ask any more of you than that.
|
|
|
|
## Pull Requests
|
|
|
|
As a maintainer, you're fine to make your branches on the main repo or on your own fork. Either
|
|
way is fine.
|
|
|
|
When we receive a pull request, a Circle CI build is kicked off automatically (see the `.circleci/`
|
|
directory for what runs in the CI pipeline). We avoid merging anything that breaks the CI pipeline.
|
|
|
|
Please review PRs and focus on the code rather than the individual. You never know when this is
|
|
someone's first ever PR and we want their experience to be as positive as possible, so be
|
|
uplifting and constructive.
|
|
|
|
When you merge the pull request, 99% of the time you should use the
|
|
[Squash and merge](https://help.github.com/articles/merging-a-pull-request/) feature. This keeps
|
|
our git history clean, but more importantly, this allows us to make any necessary changes to the
|
|
commit message so we release what we want to release. See the next section on Releases for more
|
|
about that.
|
|
|
|
## Release
|
|
|
|
Our releases are automatic. They happen whenever code lands into `master`. A Circle CI build
|
|
build gets kicked off and if it's successful, a tool called
|
|
[`semantic-release`](https://github.com/semantic-release/semantic-release) is used to
|
|
automatically publish a new release to npm as well as a changelog to GitHub. It is only able to
|
|
determine the version and whether a release is necessary by the git commit messages. With this
|
|
in mind, **please brush up on [the commit message convention][commit] which drives our releases.**
|
|
|
|
> One important note about this: Please make sure that commit messages do NOT contain the words
|
|
> "BREAKING CHANGE" in them unless we want to push a major version. I've been burned by this
|
|
> more than once where someone will include "BREAKING CHANGE: None" and it will end up releasing
|
|
> a new major version. Not a huge deal honestly, but kind of annoying...
|
